Bomb It! is an electrifying ride into the world of graffiti told by both its purveyors and opponents. Graffiti is the largest artistic cultural movement in history and this documentary tells the story from the artists perspectives. It poses the question: "What is public space, and who owns it?" They share their thoughts about what the culture means to them, where/why it started, what it's become, and where it's going. We are thrust into the chaotic often times dangerous world of writers/artists who risk their lives and freedom daily, whether it be to "get up," gain fame, fortune, or simply announce to the world they they exist and have a voice. Bomb it has assembled a veritable who's who of graffiti artists from around the world weaving a throughly entertaining story about individual expression, rebellion, art, cultural/social awareness, poverty, and corporate greed. Filled with stunning art and music from around the globe, Bomb It! is a visual and sonic explosion which aims to bring down the social and class boundaries that separate us all. Splendid.
